Camellia campbellii (1L)

Camellia campbellii is a magnificent evergreen shrub or small tree known for its large, showy flowers in shades of pink, rose, or white. Blooming from late winter to early spring, these stunning, cup-shaped blooms contrast beautifully with its glossy, dark green foliage, providing a breathtaking display. Growing to a height of 3-6 meters over many years, Camellia campbellii is ideal for large gardens, woodland settings, or as a striking focal point.

Best Position: Plant Camellia campbellii in a partially shaded spot, protected from cold winds and early morning sun, which can damage buds. It prefers moist, well-drained, acidic soil enriched with organic matter. This Camellia is perfect for planting in sheltered borders, against a wall, or in a woodland garden.

Flowering Time: Camellia campbellii blooms from late winter to early spring (February to April), providing a burst of color when many other plants are still dormant.

Care Tips: Feed with an ericaceous fertilizer in early spring and again in midsummer to promote healthy growth and prolific flowering. Prune lightly after flowering, removing dead or damaged branches and shaping as needed.

Camellia campbellii is a beautiful choice for adding elegance and vibrant blooms to your garden during the colder months!
